"The Dodge County Star", Dodge Center, Minnesota, Thursday, Oct. 6, 1921, p 1.

Edward A. Langworthy, the last to pass away of ten children, born to S. P. and Miranda Langworthy, was born at Utica, New York, April 17, 1842, and died at the Colonial Hospital, Rochester, Minnesota, September 30, 1921, at the age of 79 years, 5 months and 13 days. For some years unwell and nearly blind, he spent the past weeks in pain which an operation could not relieve and death came as a great relief.

When five years of age he moved with his parents to Milton, Wisconsin, and when a young man of about twenty he came to Dodge Center and became affiliated with its pioneer interests as a farmer, locating south of town. In this community he spent the remainder of his life except for a few years spent in South Dakota.

He enlisted in Co. M, First Regiment, Heavy Artillery, February 16, 1865 and was honorably discharged at the close of the war. For many years he has been a member of the Joseph Garrison Post of the Grand Army of the Republic.

On March 4, 1864, he was united in marriage to Elizabeth A. Hubbell. To them were born three children, Lewis, and Mrs. Ina Daggett, both of Dodge Center, and Pearl, who died at the early age of thirteen. In early life he made a profession of faith and was for many years a member of the Dodge Center Seventh Day Baptist church being identified with its interests when he died. For some years past, especially, he took comfort in the church services, and when his health permitted, was a regular and punctual attendant upon worship.

He leaves to mourn his loss the son and daughter, named above, nine grandchildren, several nephews and nieces, a few of the old "Comrades" and many friends and acquaintances.

Farewell services were conducted at the S. D. B. church Sunday afternoon, October 2, by Pastor H. C. Van Horn, assisted by Rev. E. H. Socwell. The remains were laid to rest in the beautiful Riverside cemetery.
